Default Suspension swap for my CRX

I need to replace the passenger side suspension on my 91 CRX Si. I as hoping that I could do an upgrade at the same time. Would it be possible to swap for a Type-R suspension or something similar? I tried searching but came up empty handed. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Type R rear shocks will only fit 88 crx, not 89-91
Type R front shocks will only fit if you use the 92 up civic or 94 up teg shock fork

I believe any teg spring is going to make the CRX sit higher than stock.

I would just go aftermarket.

I am looking to replace the control arms and such, as I hit a curb. But thanks for the info.

You could swap to DA 90-93 integra front knuckles and run the bigger brakes. 10.2 vs 9.8 Once your on DA Knuckles you can bolt on 94 and up GSR brakes to them as well not sure though if there diff than the DA parts.

Front lower control arm is going to be only from a 88-91 CRX/Civic. As far as I know.
Front upper control arm is going to be onlyt from a 88-91 CRX/Civic 100% right

If you want something else look aftermarket but I haven't heard of anyone making anything.
